Thanks

I drank a frozen margarita no problem. Couldn't drink it all because I got full but it was fine.

Geeze people' date=' i asked about some options and others opinions. People take things to such a crazy level. You don't know me so you should not have even made comments about "not drinking". I did not ask your opinion on whether to drink or not. Ugh anyway i already wasted too much time responding. To those with the good advice THANKS! I like the crystal light idea. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />[/quote']

Defensive much?

When posting on a public forum you're going to get public opinion. That's kind of a given. If that bothers you, you may want to rethink posting the questions you're obviously sensitive about.

I know someone already said Water and vodka, but try that with flavored vodka instead! That's what I drink now (pre op) because it's lower calorie and the Water keeps hangovers at bay.

And the flavored vodka tastes pretty good.

Shes right. You dont know her. She didnt say she drinks every day. Its a social event. She wants to have a couple of drinks. She has a right to. Some things should not be said.

Blah, blah, blah.

No one attacked anyone. No one attempted to interfere with anyone's rights. No one judged anyone. Suggestions were offered, at her request. If someone doesn't want suggestions, don't post it publicly.

If you're old enough to drink then you should be old enough to handle various feedback and make your own decision... Without whining about the opinions you don't like.

Sheesh.

I haven't had a drink post op, but when I asked my doctor he said to try it at home first. That way if you have a bad reaction it won't ruin your event. ie spending the evening throwing up or something else not fun

For those of you that expresses your opinions about whether or not she should drink alcohol please re read her question. She was asking for advice as to WHAT to drink, not IF she should drink. Ladies lets not be the catty girls in the middle school hallways, we're adults now

To the OP I would try Skinny Girl Vodka and Water or crystal light.

I have not tried it because I am a wine drinker but someone told me once they were drinking vodka mixed with poweraid zero. Would help keep you hydrated? Just a thought.

She didn't ask for suggestions on whether or not to drink alcohol, is the thing. If you think you're adult enough to tell another adult she should abstain from alcohol, "you should be adult enough to handle various feedback." And mature enough to not mock people with your blah blah blahs.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
